Doreen was invited back to adjudicate the 2007 edition of the County of Vulcan Music Competition – an event for young music students, age 10 – 18.  As before, she contributed a level of expertise to the Competition that gave it a more professional standard of quality.

Doreen was very adaptable and readily volunteered to provide individual critiques during her summation of each class.  This significantly enhanced the learning experience for each student.  Doreen evaluated a broad range of both instruments and musical repertoire while providing performance assessments appropriate to the age and ability of each student.  She was patient with each young person, and her comments were always given in a manner that created an atmosphere of positive coaching.

We were delighted to again have Doreen’s help and we have no hesitation in recommending her services.
